Subject: [CVE-2019-0212] Apache HBase REST Server incorrect user authorization
CVE-2019-0212: HBase REST Server incorrect user authorization
Description: In all previously released Apache HBase 2.x versions,
authorization was incorrectly applied to users of the HBase REST server.
Requests sent to the HBase REST server were executed with the
permissions of the REST server itself, not with the permissions of the
end-user. This issue is only relevant when HBase is configured with
Kerberos authentication, HBase authorization is enabled, and the REST
server is configured with SPNEGO authentication. This issue does not
extend beyond the HBase REST server.
Versions affected: 2.0.0-2.0.4, 2.1.0-2.1.3
Mitigation: Stop the HBase REST server until your installation is
upgraded to HBase 2.0.5, 2.1.4, or any other later release. Upon
upgrading to a newer version, no other action is required.
